Healthy Oatmeal Sheet Pan Berry Pancakes

These Healthy Oatmeal Sheet Pan Berry Pancakes are made in a blender for an easy and flavorful breakfast.  Leftovers make a great meal option for busy weekday mornings.

These pancakes are so versatile and can me made with your favorite pancake toppings and syrups.  I like to split the sheet pan in half or quarters to give everyone in my family a bit of their favorite additions.  It is just so hard to pick a favorite!

What are Sheet Pan Pancakes?

These Sheet Pan Pancakes are baked in a half sheet pan.  They usually measure 18″ x 13″ and have a depth of around 1 inch.  The prepared pancakes can easily be cut into desired serving sizes and are ready to enjoy all at once.  There is no more cooking while everyone else is eating with these.

Toppings and Variations

You can use your choice of flour as a substitute for the blended oatmeal.  Add a tbsp. or two of extra milk or buttermilk to thin out the batter if needed.

My family loves sliced bananas on top with pecan bits and a bit of brown sugar sprinkled on top.  Mini chocolate chips are also great for satisfying a sweet tooth.  The addition of swirled peanut butter is also great for a bit of added protein.  

Blueberries are a classic favorite and can be used fresh or frozen.  Feel free to swirl your favorite fruit jam in there with them.

I usually add a scoop or two of vanilla flavored protein powder.  Chocolate would also work great with a bit of cocoa powder for chocolate pancakes. 

Freezing and Storing

These pancakes can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days for best results.  Just heat them in the microwave for around 45 seconds when ready to eat.  You can freeze these for up to 2 months by wrapping in plastic and putting in an airtight freezer container.  Microwave for around 1 minute and 15 seconds when ready to eat.
